A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Love it. We used soundboards. The Schwarzenegger one was a blast. You get them paying attention with the lines from kindergarten cop then start going wild on them with lines from predator, etc. My personal favorite was "I hope you left enough room for my fist, because I'm gonna ram it into your stomach!" One memorable woman tried to save Arnold's soul with gospel music. I think she enjoyed the whole thing.
Who is your daddy, and what does he do.
Hahaha, I would have loved to listen in on those. Arnold quotes are a favorite language a la 'Darmok and Jalad at Tenagra' in this house.
I used soundboards with my friends. My favorite was Betty Grovenstein, she was a sex hotline worker with a nasally New Englander accent.
